Ping-TraceRT.ps1

<# File Name: Ping-TraceRT.ps1 #>
# Adding a timer just to see how long this takes
$Stopwatch = New-Object -TypeName System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch
$Stopwatch.Start()

# Move to the Proper Folder where these scripts 'live'
Write-Host "Execution Path: $( ( Split-Path -Path $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path -Parent ) )"
Set-Location -Path ( Split-Path -Path $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path -Parent )

# Check & Import the Test-PingTrace function
if ( -not ( Get-Command -Name Test-PingTrace -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue) ) {

}

<# Expected Arguments (in order)
    IP Address (to do the ping and tracert)
    alertDefinitionId (up write the note)
    alertObject (for nodes, this is the Node ID)
    objectType (for nodes, this is 'Node')

    Matching SWIS Variable Definition:
    IP Address       = '${N=SwisEntity;M=IP_Address}'
    alertDefinitonId = '${N=Alerting;M=AlertDefID}'
    alertObject      = '${N=SwisEntity;M=NodeID}'
    objectType       = '${N=Alerting;M=ObjectType}'

The 'alert action executable' should look like this:

    "C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -File "C:\Scripts\Ping-TraceRT.ps1" "${N=SwisEntity;M=IP_Address}" "${N=Alerting;M=AlertDefID}" "${N=SwisEntity;M=NodeID}" "${N=Alerting;M=ObjectType}"

This is assuming that you save the Ping-TraceRT.ps1 and func_PingTrace.ps1 in the "C:\Scripts" folder
